Before writing your conditionals, it can be helpful to make your own flowchart that will
plot out the flow of each condition. By writing out the flow, you can better determine how
complex the set of conditionals will be as well as check to see if any condition is not
taken care of before you begin writing it out.

To make sure that your code covers all of the conditions that you intend for it to cover, you
should add comments for each clause that explains what that clause is meant to do. Then, you
should add tests for each possible path that the program could go though. What leads
to certain conditional statements being executed? Is that what you intended?

When adding conditionals to your program, you should also consider the kinds of conditionals
that are at your disposal and what would fit best.

Though you’ll use them often, remember that conditional statements don’t always need an else clause.
When deciding the flow, ask yourself what you want to have happen under a certain condition.
For example, if you wanted to find all of the words that have the letter ‘n’ in them. If there’s nothing
that needs to happen when a word does not contain the letter ‘n’ then you won’t need an else
clause. The program should just continue onward!

condition-11-1: What is the best set of conditonal statements provided based on the following prompt? You want to keep track of all the words that have the letter ‘t’ and in a separate variable you want to keep track of all the words that have the letter ‘z’ in them.

If statement - Else statement

Using if/else either uses an unnecessary else statement or would improperly keep track of one of the accumulator variables.

If statement - Elif statement

Using if/elif means that words that have both a "t" and a "z" would not be propperly counted by the two variables.

If statement - If statement

Yes, two if statements will keep track of - and properly update - the two different accumulator variables.

If statement - Elif statemenet - Else statement

Using if/elif/else here will provide an unnecessary else statement and improperly update one of the accumulator variables in the case where a word has both a "t" and a "z".

condition-11-2: Select the most appropriate set of conditonal statements for the situation described: You want to keep track of all the words that contain both “t” and “z”.

If statement - Elif statemenet - Else statement

The elif and else statements are both unnecessary.

If statement - Else statement

The else statement is unnecessary.

If statement - Nested If statement

Though you could write a set of conditional statements like this and answer the prompt, there is a more concise way.

If statement

Yes, this is the most concise way of writing a conditional for that prompt.
